Santamaría

This is truly one of the best cocktail bars in Madrid. Here, you’ll find textbook-perfect gin and tonics, friendly people and a cozy vibe. Also known as the ‘Cocktail Bar Next Door,’ this spot behind la Gran Vía has found the key to success: reasonably priced, tasty drinks made by expert bartenders, delicious snacks, a consistently great music selection and occasional free concerts. With all this in a small local spot with a stocked bar and plush sofa, it’s no wonder that Santamaría is a favorite among tourists and locals alike.
